Coming down he found Alison in me dining-room; she had Just brought in some hot soup. She looked at him anxiously. "Was it. the car?" she asked. "I think it was Rufus," Crlspm answered. "But first tell me what brlnss you here-I've had supper" he added. "You'll take this soup first," said Alison firmly. Crlspln chuckled. "You're starting rght, my dear," he said. and sat down meekly. Dick came in and, vilrile Crlspln absoro- ed his soup, Alison told him of her siepfntherls visit to Plymouth and of the robbery of the gold. “We're almost certain it was Rufus." she ended. "We know he went to Plymouth by the noon train." Crispin looked throughful. "In that case it's somebody else I have to thank for trying to murder me," he remarked. Alison palcd again. "’l‘r'ed to murder youl" ilte re- med pe . "It‘s all right, darling. I-Ie didn't succeed-as you can see for your- self, I'll tell you all about it."

He paused, then went on. “Question is. what do we do next? It seems to me this busi- ness of the gold is most urgent. Rufus has got it. Can we get it back from liim?" Moat " Crlspin "Not a hope," raid Cfispill. "He'll sell it at once to pi; his debts." "He can't sell it ligrc," Dick de- clared. “True, time might be someone in Plymouth who'd buy it, blt the risks are too great. He'll have to go to London." “He's probably on his way there already." Qrispin said. "That would turn suspicion on him at once and lie knows it. I'm almost sure he won't g0 to Lon- don." Alison shrewdly suggested. “Then what will lie do?" Crlspin ked. ‘ ‘I think,’ Alison answered. "that he will get someone else to sell it for him. And it seems to Inf‘ the natural person would be Spinner." The two men looked at one 1m- other. Dick brought his fist down on the table with a thump. "She's right, Crispln. Trust woman's intuition. She's right." CHAPTER XXIV DICK GOES SCOUTING Crispin and Alison were to go to Plymoufii in Dick's car, starting very early and keeping off the main road. They were to see Burt. find out what he knew and. if he was fit enough, bring him home. Dick would take Crispin’s piizvcle and go in Brest where he would hide out and watch the house. If Rufus came out Dick would tiy to follow him and, If possible, send word to Roseworthy as to xviirrs tie had gone, Crispin and Alison would get, back as soon as possible from Ply- mouth, and Crispin would be rcadv to help Dick ii’ help was waiitczl It was decider! not to inform the police, but Dick WYIS to post a man in Newton SUP-m to see if Rufus took a train.
